Actually, I was talking about the V2 and the new 850M based off of the V2, which are both Seasonics from what i seen online

Well, it's a moot point now, but the TX M are not based off of the V2. The TX M are by CWT, DSG design--so similar to the Corsair HX750/850 units but built a little cheaper and with fewer modular cables, with 80 plus bronze instead of silver.

As Corsair has said in the past, they don't consider the product to be a particular platform/design but rather a unit built to a certain spec and reliability. (this issue came up with the unannounced TX -> TX-C change) Particularly in the RAM business, supply of ICs comes and goes. They don't tie products to chips only from a certain supplier, batch, and spec.

"Based on" here should maybe be taken with a looser meaning. It's based on the type of performance you would expect of the TX V2. Apparently in reality they use CWT DSG to achieve that.

So the tx850M is not seasonic... -.-, first bad thing I've seen from corsair : /, misinformation

- Just for those curious, I didn't consider the hx850 in my choice because i didn't like the extended length, it would have made it hard to mount the 2 fans at the bottom of my caseEdited by TH3 original - 8/28/11 at 8:28am
